Thorncliffe Park tenants protested today at the Urban Land Institute’s Meet the Planners event. PSP Investments subsidiary Northcrest Developments was a sponsor of the event. We pressed our demand that PSP Investments and Starlight drop the rent hikes at our buildings.

🚨ATTENTION Tenants & tenant allies in Canada 🇨🇦 Do you agree that rent is too damn high? RSVP to this free virtual event to learn how we’re fighting to #StopTheLandlordCartel 👇👇👇👇👇

ABSOLUTELY YES to this 👏👏👏

I cannot emphasize enough how amazing Bhutila Karpoche’s solidarity and support has been for my community & so many others in #TaiaiakonParkdaleHighPark when it comes to making life better for people. Go vote for Bhutila so she can continue to hold gov’t to account! 🍊✊🏻🧡

Tenants from 71, 75 & 79 Thorncliffe Park protested today at Starlight Investments’ head office, marking two years since we kicked off our rent strike in protest of Starlight and PSP Investments’ above guideline rent increases. We will not allow them to push us out of our homes.

Another great example of direct action that gets meaningful results 👏💪✊ Yes, we should continue to push for legislative & political change… But as long as laws & gov’t favour big landlords (REITs, hedge funds, etc) we must always *stand together to protect each each other*
